Hi, Lately I've been working with external API's and when writing tests I've found it extremely useful to have an abstract class (or something like a java interface) so that I can have an actual implementation for production and dev, and a dummy one that does not use the real API for tests. But since ruby does not provide abstract classes, I had to implement it throw some metaprogramming at it and use it as a mixin.
I think this is clearly an overkill for something that would probably be useful for many people. Is there any better way to achieve this goal? And do you think this would be a good feature to add to rails or ruby? Regards, Luís Ferreira -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
